Yes, Reigns is pretty much guaranteed the gold… and I'm kinda okay with that. Mind you, if somehow Cesaro beats Reigns next week, maybe due to outside interference from the Authority… well, it'd be unlikely but fun.

I respect the heck out of Cesaro, but this is the second time in as many weeks that he went for a European uppercut and it blatantly missed, on camera, and either Owens or Sheamus went flying anyway. Either Cesaro, his opponents, or some WWE editor is falling down on the job.

I had to hunt for it, but I nominate "CHA$E" from the Sci-Fi Channel - contestants have to achieve goals while black-suited Hunters calmly pursue them. Maybe with some sort of app that can show where everyone actually is, rather than the vague oh-they're-over-here-kinda indications.

And then you watch it again, and say, "Oh look, Kristen Wiig and Natasha Leggero were in it."

So people say there's a human-like creature covered in fur that is spotted every so often in the woods, but every time they look for it, they only find a few weirdly distorted footprints, and occasionally a hair that turns out to be from a human being…

I tried renting Silent Hill 4 back in the day. Back, specifically, when I lived in a small apartment that was pretty much exactly the same one your character wakes up in at the start of the game. Yeah, no, thank you but no.

Step 1: Date Nathalie Emmanuel.
Step 2: That whole Seinfeld Switch thing.

I was always creeped out by the one song from the Muppet Show, where a monster sings "I've Got You Under My Skin" while swallowing another monster whole.

Gameological tangent: The tie-in videogame on the NES was difficult but pretty good. (Though this is based on the memories of the younger me who played it - it would probably get the same battering that the movie gets in the article if I played it again.)

Don Rosa is the Homer of the "McDuckiad".

The link has a few images of the surreal set - for costumes and props, they apparently aimed to make it look as if some child was reading it and re-creating it using any toys, items, or fabrics that were handy. The Aunt Beast creature certainly wasn't photorealistic or anything.

Oregon Shakespeare Festival did a fairly effective stage version of "A Wrinkle In Time": https://www.osfashland.org/…

There is a particular chant - "YOU ****ED UP!" - that is usually used to make fun of wrestlers who botch or slip up during a match, and it's usual directed at the actual person who made the mistake rather than his character. During this show, Dana Brooke slaps Asuka's face, and Asuka straightens up and grins…

I remember recognizing E.G. Daily in Rob Zombie's "The Devil's Rejects" and immediately feeling a lot better about life in general. Sure, weird backwood freaks are torturing and killing everybody, but hey, Buttercup's here!

She was at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival last year - she played a couple of roles in their version of Into the Woods, and I never connected her with Twin Peaks. Here's her page on their site: https://www.osfashland.org/…

Sad Tom Bergeron is best Tom Bergeron.

People get creeped out by animatronics and uncanny-valley dwellers - I think Muppets would respond in kind to a homemade puppet, yelling in horror and then avoiding its gaze.

YOU GO TOO FAR! YOU AM PLAY GODS!

Huzzah! I was mentioned, and therefore am famous! I await my oversized check full of Internet monies.
